Hello, my name is Simon,
and I'm a doodle addict. Amsterdam

I am a digital artist who lives and works in Amsterdam with my partner and 2 dogs. My work is adaptive and flexible in style and I’m fascinated by the different mediums, materials and techniques you can achieve with art. My work is a mix of smooth airbrush, crisp vectors and textured brush work filled with creativity and humor. Some of the companies that have used my illustrations include Emirates Airlines Global, Unilever, Coca-Cola, British American Tobacco, BMW, Land Rover, Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, Simon & Schuster Australia.

I specialize in character design, childrens illustration, commercial illustration, digital art, illustration, painting.

Here's Kermit and Gonzo out for a ride. And if you can read sheet music then you will see this is the start of the Muppet Show theme tune Gonzo is playing.

The little bluebird, restless artist, Flew over the orange horizon without restraint. With his box full of colored pencils, He thought he could paint the sky in an instant, of course! But too many pencils and too few wings, Unbalanced the poor little bird. So many colors, no coordination, His creative disaster fell to the ground! Orange, yellow and red pencils shattered, While the little blue bird fell in tears. His celestial dream turned into a nightmare... Until he saw - a rainbow formed! From sadness, joy overflowed, In that magical moment he understood: It doesn't matter the skill or the tools, Art comes from the heart, even if messy!

I intended to do quick little spot illustrations for Inktober this year, but nooooooo! Now Jimmy is drowning in digital ink and lots of doodle details. This was way too much fun to go simple. I also included the original sketch this time.

Here is my submission to the 10th anniversary Plushform show at Rotofugi Gallery. I was invited by Shawn @shawnimals to participate in this fun show. He is the creator of the Plushform DIY plush figure being customized by 40 artists at Rotofugi, a designer toy store gallery in Chicago. The original Plushform show was in 2008. I was waiting for their official announcement before posting my final so I could link people to the site for more info. I was told they are working on it and will announce soon. This will be for sale at the show.
